Now, officials at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)-which operates the LHC-has unveiled plans to build an even bigger successor accelerator, right next to it, to further probe the mysteries of matter and the universe. According to a report from ScienceAlert , its creation could be operational by the 2030s and present "a head start (on) the multiple collisions needed to amass th... [Full Article...]
